Ronald Acuña Jr. left Saturday’s game in the second inning with an apparent left hamstring injury.
The Braves are calling it left hamstring tightness, though that doesn’t mean much of anything. Acuña grabbed his hamstring coming out of the box after hitting a groundball. He continued down to first, and it didn’t appear to be a particularly severe injury. Best-case scenario, it might have even been just a cramp. Still, the better bet is that he’s going to miss some time. That would likely mean more shortstop starts for Jorge Mateo, with Mauricio Dubón playing right field.
